Good News Blues Lyrics

Good News Blues

We-e-e-e-ll, My woman left me and I??m so glad she did
You know my old gal left me and I??m glad she took the kids
Now I got less mouths to feed and more room to sleep in my bed
Chorus:
I got the good news blues, I??m smiling on a rainy day
I got the good news blues, I sung all my troubles away
Aint got no aching bones, aint got no bills to pay
You see these politicians just tell you what they think we want to hear
You know it??s here one day and then it??s right out that other ear
You know they promise us whiskey and won??t even give us a beer
Instrumental solos
Aint got no aching bones, aint got no bills I??m gonna pay
